Description

Acadiana Center for the Arts is pleased to invite you to The Sunny Side Jazz Brunch which calls to the experiences of legendary Creole Jazz brunches at Commander’s Palace and Brennan’s, and features a performance of classic New Orleans tunes by the Preservation Hall All-Stars.

Attendees will enjoy brunch fare alongside New Orleans-inspired drinks. The event also features a live auction with art-filled and adventurous experiences available for bidding.

All funds raised from the Sunny Side Jazz Brunch will support the AcA’s performing arts programs, offering national acts of music, dance, and theater in Lafayette, as well as the expansion of AcA’s Arts in Education work into new schools and parishes around the rural regions of Acadiana.

AcA currently presents more than 30 major original productions each year in the James Devin Moncus Theater in Downtown Lafayette and brings dynamic and engaging arts experiences to more than 25,000 school aged youth in Acadiana each year at no cost to the students.

Acadiana Center for the Arts

Our mission is fostering art and culture in Acadiana.

Founded in 1975, Acadiana Center for the Arts (“AcA”) is a community-supported nonprofit organization that fosters art and culture in Acadiana. Since its founding, AcA has developed as a major force, shaping the future of public education and community development in South Louisiana.

AcA supports the creation of new works of art, exhibits, festivals, performances, and public art across an eight-parish region that includes Acadia, Evangeline, Iberia, Lafayette, St. Landry, St. Martin, St. Mary, and Vermilion Parishes.  

AcA aims to bring equitable access to the arts and supports fair compensation of artists. On average, AcA serves over 300,000 people annually and provides fair compensation to 2,700 artists.  

In 2013, the AcA merged with the Performing Arts Society of Acadiana (“PASA”), whose mission was to educate, inspire, entertain, and culturally enrich the people of south Louisiana by providing local access to a diverse range of the performing arts. This merger supported the vision of both organizations and provided much-needed support to PASA’s programs. Founded in 1989, PASA served as a leading voice in the performing arts in South Louisiana for close to three decades.
